And harassing her off the platform because her message made you angry is ironically a pretty damn good demonstration of why she was talking about power and intersectionality in the first place.

Intersectionality requires understanding that being oppressed in one axis of identity does not magically make someone incapable of benefiting from, or participating in, oppression along another.

Stop and ask why she would feel the need to say it. What experiences, patterns, or forms of marginalization is she trying to articulate? You can disagree with her wording or ask for clarification without making the entire conversation about your own hurt feelings.

When a bipoc person is talking about intersectionality, it behooves you to put yourself in their shoes before immediately treating their words as a personal attack. When a trans woc says “white trans people are oppressors too,” don’t just fixate on how harsh the wording sounds to you.
